Isn't it strange that Refsnyder has only started 30 games?

 

You might think, "short side of a platoon," but he's started 16 v RHPs and 14 v LHP, despite a massive 300 point swing in his L-R splits.

 

I leave this to Splendid to bash away at Cora.

Nah, Cora's above the law.

Well maybe. But since there's no one on the bench who hits righties at a .260 clip or whatever he's doing, leave him out there. Maybe there are some guys who hit RP better than they hit LP, like maybe your .090 hitting Casas, ...

He’s over.700 vRHps.

 

I’d have given him a shot at FT, but waiting forJBJ to improve wash the higher priority.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Btw, for those who swear by WAR the highest single season WAR post WWII was YAZ's 12.5 in 1967. Judge's WAR as of today is 9.9.

[FredLynn]

This game won’t be competitive for long.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Wam bam, thank you, Pham.

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

Wam bam, thank you, Pham.

 

Don't lean on me, man.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I guess Cora keeps JD as DB because of his defense.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Don't lean on me, man.

 

 

I loved Bowie, too.

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

There it goes: K number 162!

[FredLynn]

This team has no plate discipline at all. If they are ever going to be relevant again that has to change. Appears to me that they just want to go home as soon as possible.

[FredLynn]

More brain dead baseball as Devers strikes out on a ball that bounced a foot in front of the plate.

[jad]

Wow. That was the worst K I've ever seen!

[bmattioli]

I am so sick of hearing Aaron Judge's name..

[FredLynn]

I am so sick of hearing Aaron Judge's name..

 

You have to give credit where credit is due. He is having an amazing season and from what I have read about him he is very down to earth.

Hard for me to hate the guy even though he is a Yankee.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Josh Donaldson is the ugly version of Rutger Hauer.

[FredLynn]

More brain dead baseball. Three people come within a foot of the ball with the error going to the SS. Just a disgusting team to watch.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I agree. With A-holes on the Yankems like Stanton, Chapman, and Donaldson it's hard to dislike Judge.

[FredLynn]

The hammer is about to fall

[FredLynn]

The hammer dropped as predicted.

Game over

Bye

[moonslav59]

I never thought I'd see an OF arm worse than Damon's.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

A meltdown by Cole. There's another expensive long-term contract that's gonna bite the Yankems on the ass.

[Maxbialystock]

The hammer dropped as predicted.

Game over

Bye

 

Bye. And good riddance.

 

Great game going to the bottom of the 8th. Sox score first, Yankees tie it and go ahead 4-1, then the Sox tie it with Dugo's 3 run dinger. Bullpen doing just fine, thank you.

[Maxbialystock]

3d error was the charm. Appropriately, by the pitcher who then gave up the run-scoring single with a man on 3d base.

 

Pham cannot continue in LF. He has no range, no judgment, and no arm.

[Maxbialystock]

I am so sick of hearing Aaron Judge's name..

 

I am too, but 60 is a really big number in this day and age. Plus the guy is a good outfielder.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Cora go WOW. Cora's a good loser.

[Maxbialystock]

Cora go WOW. Cora's a good loser.

 

Good point. I'm sure if he had run out onto the field and shouted at the ump, he would have reversed his call and made it a ball. Sad to say, but those changeups Loaisiga was throwing to Almonte were working. If he wasn't called out on that pitch--which was in fact a ball--it would have been on the one after that.

 

Devers once again hopeless at bat, which of course is Cora's fault for putting him in the lineup. What was he thinking?

[Maxbialystock]

3 Sox errors have to be Cora's fault too.
